Abstract

The Fock representation of the inverse of harmonic-oscillator creation and annihilation operators [see, e.g., C. L. Mehta, Anil K. Roy, and G. M. Saxena, Phys. Rev. A 46, 1565 (1992)] are naturally derived via a coherent-state approach. The completeness relation of Fock space is reexpressed by the inverse operators. Applications of the inverse operators in studying the phase operators and in normally ordering some operators are given.

Some New Operator Identities in Two-mode Fock Space

井思聪, 范洪义

Two-mode Fock space, as a Hilbert space spanned by two-mode occupation number state vectors, is widely used in quantum mechanics and quantum optics. In this work we derive some new operator identifies in this space which can help us to prove a completeness relation in the two-mode Fock space. Let a(a~+) and b(b~+) be annihilation (creation) operators of two-mode harmonic

Inverse operator representations of quantum phase

G. M. Saxena

We define quantum phase in terms of inverses of annihilation and creation operators. We show that like Susskind - Glogower phase operators, the measured phase operators and the unitary phase operators can be defined in terms of the inverse operators. However, for the unitary phase operator the Hilbert space includes the negative energy states. The quantum phase in inverse operator representation may find the applications in the field of quantum optics particularly in the squeezed states.

New Creation and Annihilation Operators in Phase Space

A. D. Jannussis, N. Patargias, G. N. Brodimas

New creation and annihilation operators of the harmonic oscillator in the phase space are considered. The common base of these operators is a generalized Wigner distribution and their coherent states are determined. Using these operators Weyl's displacement operators and Bopp's translation operators are also determined.

Elementary derivation of the quantum propagator for the harmonic oscillator

Jiushu Shao

Operator algebra techniques are employed to derive the quantum evolution operator for the harmonic oscillator. The derivation begins with the construction of the annihilation and creation operators and the determination of the wave function for the coherent state as well as its time-dependent evolution, and ends with the transformation of the propagator in a mixed position-coherent-state representation to the desired one in configuration space. Throughout the entire procedure, besides elementary operator manipulations, it is only necessary to solve linear differential equations and to calculate Gaussian integrals.
